Abstract

This research sought to investigate the influence of technology on improving English reading proficiency among students in the sixth semester of English instruction at Dong Nai Technology University. This research used a qualitative descriptive methodology and utilized purposive sampling. The research included a total of 34 individuals. Data is collected using observation, interview, and documentation methods. The study revealed that the majority of kids felt at ease using the new technology to enhance their reading abilities. The need to acquire knowledge in the modern day is driven by the reliance on technology. The statement is corroborated by the outcome of the interview. The students said that using e-books is more convenient than physical books due to their compatibility with various devices such as smartphones. Furthermore, the documentation serves the purpose of incorporating the data obtained via observation and interviews. Ultimately, technology has a positive influence on enhancing kids' proficiency in reading.
